The ALM is a flexible high speed work station designed to process or test components individually or in batch mode.
Flexible, platform: An overhead gantry supports the high speed linear servo motor for maximum flexibility. The powerful motor can pick & place components or transport an integrated process to the components.
Unlimited configurations: Components can be input to the ALM from all four sides, on a rotary table, through the machine, or across the machine. Other motor types, additional motors, or dual carriages can be added or replaced on the ALM to best suit the application.
Unlimited processes: Input / Output examples include: Manual load / unload, tape & reel, bulk, sort bins, vibratory feed, trays, conveyors, tube stackers. Processes examples include: Packaging, assembly, electrical testing, vision inspection, mechanical testing, laser, and ink marking.
Quick change-out: Alignment tooling is available that allows the user to snap complete input / output / process modules in with a single fastener, and one utility manifold. The MMI comes pre-programmed for pull-down select change-over.
Extremely compact: The ALM can be removed from it’s cabinet storage base (shown in photo) and placed on a table, or into an existing process.
Communications: Opto-isolated serial / parallel, or Ethernet communications are available.
Safe: Full-featured safety electronics, and safety enclosure are standard.
User friendly: A color graphic LCD touchscreen MMI on an ergonomic arm is standard.
